Past
After doing the mandatory school years I did an apprentice ship as a junior clerk. Jumpstarting my IT
Career as a junior programmer for a steel company doing an application for stock control, ordering
system for steel forms, invoicing and printing forms for CNC Machines. During this time I had two
clients on my own to help them organise their clientele, payment data and help distributing their
magazines.
A big bank called me in as their programmer/analyst and did online support and moved after
this into balance and foreign exchange. Quickly follow a short stint with another bank for an Investment
Project as Analyst.
Changing directions from Banks to Health Insurance. With the help of a CASE tool we developed a new solution
and I was Project Coordinator/Senior Analyst over 28 Teams. I did mentor them in the method, design and the CASE tool. Moved
then back into the banking sector and integrated the old applications with interfaces to a new banking solution.
The difficulty was there that it was bilinguality of the project. Out of this project I got hired into developing a new Customer
Care Billing System for a big Telco.
From there I went to a big Software Devolvement House where we did mostly in-house project. First project was helping out in
an Insurance Company for the Y2K issue. The next Project involved building a Report System about tracks conditions and incidents
for the Swiss Federal Railways.
Then I got hired for a small boutique company developing software using the mobile technologies. Unfortunately their client field shrunk
and I worked for another development company. During that time I did 2 projects: One for the Swiss Federal Justice Department to build an
Asylum system and the second project was for Zuerich Insurance to simplify and streamline the User-Rights-System.
In 2001 I immigrated to Australia and travelled around. From 2002 to about 2007 I had multiple jobs to simply survive and did web design
and consulting works for my company Schneider Design. Due to CFG issues I started working in Level 2 Support for a TELCO.
This company got bought and we were all made redundant. During my unemployment I finishe 2 TAFE courses;
- Diploma in Database Design and Development. 3 websites came out of this course:
- A website he had to build with Joomla and put 5 errors in to show we can manipulate the content.
- The 2nd website we developed in the ASP class (for a library - link follows later)
- The 3rd one was the major project to combine everything we learnt.
- Advanced Diploma in Business Analysis
- Linux Course.
